tiana Benjamin

Tiana Benjamin has made her EastEnders' debut - and is poised to create quite a storm in Albert Square. Ms Benjamin, a former pupil of Highgate Wood School, Montenotte Road, Crouch End, has already tasted success in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.But the young star is preparing for mass recognition in the nation's favourite soap, which this week won a prestigious BAFTA award.Ms Benjamin said: "I've been a big fan of EastEnders since I was little and I'm very excited to join the show."She said she "can't wait" to work with the actress Dianne Parish, who will play on-screen mum Denise Fox.An EastEnders insider said: "We can't give too much away, but I can say that Tiana's character is very strong-willed and she knows her own mind. She is feisty, fun and flirty - which we will see when she ingratiates herself with others on the square. One of the first times we see her she is flirting with Grant, and we will see her character develop very quickly.Fellow Highgate Wood School pupil Scarlett Johnson also appeared in the soap, as Vicky Fowler, and Ms Benjamin enjoys the same home ground as many other cast members - past and present - including Cliff Parisi, Perry Fenwick, Tamzin Outhwaite "hello everybody its nice to meet you all well i just like to say a few things i realy dis like the rude message's i been getting from you boy's i dont sleep around i like to be respected so please can you treat me with some respect i deserve that mutch but anyway i like to mee honest,sweet god fearing people, so hope i get to talk to them soon mutch love to all of you feel free to message me "
